Patience 2.0
 

OK, so we lost to Dallas. Lets not lose our cool and prospective. The season is young and everyone seems to be writing us off. Keep the faith Skins fans. Special teams turned it around and I have no doubt the offense will come around. Once we get our team fully we'll be rolling. I leave you with words of wisdom all centered around the word patience.

[QUOTE]Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold. For if you put on more clothes as the cold increases, it will have no power to hurt you. So in like manner you must grow in patience when you meet with great wrongs, and they will then be powerless to vex your mind.

If you would like a nice test of your patience watch Joe Gibbs press conference from today.

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now
Said woman take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said sugar make it slow
And we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
(inhale) Patience...
Ooh, oh, yeah

Sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
Sometimes, I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider
Said woman take it slow
Things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said sugar take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it, Oh never break it
'Cause I can't take it

...little patience, mm yeah, ooh yeah,
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more pati... (ence, yeah)
I've been walking these streets at night
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah)
It's hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in a crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)
And the streets don't change but maybe the name
I ain't got time for the game
'Cause I need you (Patience, yeah)
Yeah, yeah well I need you
Oh, I need you (Take some patience)
Whoa, I need you (Just a little patience is all we need)

Good post. 2 games don't make a season, and they were in both games. The offense will come together eventually - they have a lot of good players and a good coordinate. But that LINE can't wait: it must improve immediately.

That's not the Brian Adams who sung such classics as "Everything I Do," "When a Man Loves a Woman," and "Summer of 69", is it?

Good thread!

I suppose you'd like to see him blow up like Parcell? What did you really expected from him? Blast the players? Cut somebody to show off his authority?

Re: Patience 2.0
 

I'm getting clowned from left to right today by my managers (Bears and Seahawks fans). They seem to think that we have only two games that are winnable on our schedule and one even boldly predicted we're no better than 8-8. It pains me to take crap from them but I have patience on my side. Mark my words, we'll have the last laugh.
